The republic has been dying in darkness.

Like a parasite, the Senior Executive Service, U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has usurped the authority of our once great nation:

'Swamp' thwarts Trump with $1.9T ‘hidden tax’ in regulations

President Trump’s administration cut by almost two-thirds the average number of regulations issued for every law passed, but still the “hidden tax” imposed by the unelected bureaucracy was nearly $2 trillion, according to a new analysis. The Competitiveness Enterprise Institute said that the $1.9 trillion in regulation translated into a “burden” of $14,600 on every household, an amount so high that if the costs were a country, it would the ninth largest, just ahead of Canada. The huge number and choking impact on the nation shows just how big a battle Trump’s anti-regulation war faces. During the 2016 campaign and while in office he has railed against the Washington "swamp" that includes unelected federal regulators entrenched in the bureaucracy.

Clyde Wayne Crews Jr., author of the just-released Ten Thousand Commandments: An Annual Snapshot of the Federal Regulatory State, found that Trump has made good on his promise to cut regulations. He noted, for example, that Trump’s government cut the average number of regulations imposed for every new piece of legislation. The average is 27 rules, but the Trump administration cut that to 11 in 2018. Trump also reduced the regulations-filled pages of the Federal Register to a near low. What’s more, the Trump administration “withdrew or delayed” 1,579 Obama rules that were in the pipeline. And, he noted, the Office of Management and Budget reported that agencies cut $33 billion in the “regulatory budget,” and it anticipates additional savings in fiscal year 2019 of another $18 billion.

Still, the costs of existing regulations are enormous, said Crews, vice president for policy and a senior fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute. “Despite the progress made on regulatory reform under President Trump, American consumers and businesses are still on the hook for the ‘hidden tax’ of federal regulation,” said Crews. “And that progress is further threatened by President Trump’s own regulatory impulses on issues ranging from antitrust enforcement to trade restrictions to food and drug matters, and more,” he added.

Six degrees of separation is the idea that all people are six, or fewer, social connections away from each other. As a result, a chain of "a friend of a friend" statements can be made to connect any two people in a maximum of six steps…

“American jurisprudence is based on the presumption of innocence – in other words, innocent until proven guilty. The accused remains innocent unless and until the prosecution can convince a judge or jury that the accused is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

Exoneration is not part of this equation for it represents the exact opposite principle, namely guilty until proven innocent. This is an impossible standard as it requires proving a negative. How does one prove that he or she didn’t commit a crime?”

“…Exoneration is an impossible

standard and turns the American

judicial system upside down.”

“This is just what Special Counsel Robert Mueller did in his final report on Russian collusion. The 400-page report could have been summarized in four words – no collusion, no obstruction.”

“White House Special Counsel to the President, Emmett Flood, laid it all out in a recent letter to Attorney General Barr. The purpose of the letter was a rebuttal, an on-the-record response to the Mueller report.

Flood began by saying that the Mueller report “Suffers from an extraordinary legal defect. It quite deliberately fails to comply with the requirements of governing law.”  This is a roundabout way of saying the report is illegal.”

“Flood went on in his four-page letter to the obstruction component, which as an aside was not the original intention of the special counsel. Remember Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein’s letter from May 2017 appointing a special counsel? In that letter, Rosenstein tasked Mueller with investigating, “Any links and/or coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the campaign of President Donald Trump.”

“That was the collusion component and definitively addressed in part one of Mueller’s report. Interestingly, as we are learning now, there was no basis to investigate Russian collusion in the first place. The premise of Trump campaign surrogates conspiring with Russians was all a set-up, based on “spies” inserted into the Trump campaign as begrudgingly reported recently by the NY Times.

Or as Byron York reported, “There are indications that special counsel prosecutors mostly knew by the end of 2017, and certainly by a few months later, that the evidence would not establish that conspiracy or coordination had taken place.”
